The newly married couple seem vaguely aware as they sit with one another at their special table. I like how the attendees seem not to notice the two - aside from one person who turns to see their moment and gently smiles. Otherwise they seem worlds apart, as they should be.

I’m not quite sure if I was drawn to this image via its somewhat humorous scene or by its strangely askew moment in time - an oddity compared to similar scenes.
Maybe it was a little bit of both that created intrigue. However, I was certain of its excellence. The photo gains an uncanny edge via composition and the juxtaposition
of a resolutely, defiantly staid and still background. For me the backdrop to this moment was the key becoming the final ingredient that formed a necessary contrast to
the starch-like rigidity of the wind-blown veil.

You couldn't hope for a more romantic scene than this incredible venue, but, more importantly is how the photographer skillfully used light mixed with a moment to help bring this dramatic scene to us all.
